Report ED16018
Members considered a report which provided an update on school performance and the implementation of the local policy of Academy conversion. Since the last meeting of the Committee there had been a short inspection of Pratts Bottom Primary School which had retained its ‘Good’ outcome. There had also been a monitoring visit of Grays Farm Primary School. However, the 5 ‘Requires Improvement’ and 2 ‘Inadequate’ schools had not received inspections which were now overdue.
The Committee noted that Burwood School and Burnt Ash Primary School had converted on 1 February 2016 and there were a further six schools that were due to convert before September 2016. If these conversions went ahead 82% of Bromley Primary Phase schools would have converted by the end of the 2015/16 Academic Year (excluding special school).
The Director of Education reported that two more schools had received inspections although the outcome of the inspections could not yet be made public.
RESOLVED: That the report be noted.
